    Eat ****, you ****ing **** isn't personal, its quite generalized. Go to it, I don't care, just don't try to circumvent the word filter. I'm sleepy and its 6:30 in the ****ing morning and I got you badgering me with your horse****, I don't care about your opinion or your attempts at playing gotcha, I don't even really know what you're talking about, whatever it is, its a false equivalency, Horn is large but a natural Welter, Hurd is a massive very unnatural LMW, who should be fighting at MW. I've liked Horn for quite some time, even before the Pac match, I've never liked Hurd, and this goes back to the first time I saw him against Galarza. So whatever hypocrisy you're trying to get me on is irrelevent, because I like Horn, because I like Horn, I dislike Hurd, because I ****ing dislike Hurd. (I really like Lara and Trout) It has **** all to do with Hurd being a weight bully. GOT IT?

    im not badgering you I was discussing a post that you wrote, pointing out the irony in it. Its a boxing FORUM, its kinda the point in its existence?

    As I said you give Crawford/Hurd a hard time for being big at the weights but refuse to discredit others (Horn) for doing similar. Thats all I'v done, thats what provoked you into the name calling immaturity.

    This thread is all about bigger guys fighting smaller guys specifically Hurd is it not?

    I have not forced you to be on this forum do not force you to reply. All I have done is respond to your views thats the whole point in this place.

    Hurd is big at the weight but most fighters on the planet need to lose weight in the weeks coming up to weigh in. Some do it to far more extremes than other but its the norm.

    You caught me in a cranky mood and I'm tired, sorry.

    Here's the deal, I don't like Crawford and Hurd, because I don't like them, its simple. That being said, Hurd's weight bullying IMO is far more egregious than Jeff's. Crawford wasn't huge for LWW, I don't care about that at all and I'm not holding it against him. I'll be rooting for Horn to KO Crawford, and if he doesn't then my hopes shift to Thurman and then Spence. Bud is an unlikable boring guy that's dull as hell to watch, and in my estimation, a cold soulless nasty piece of work. I want him to lose, I'd root for Broner over him actually.:lol:

    there was that so hard !! ..... sorry couldnt resist.

    But yes this is easily the best post you have put up so far on this thread, everyone has bad days chief.

    I agree Hurd is far too big to be fighting at that weight and measures should be put in place not just for the sakes of his opponents but also himself losing that amount of weight so quickly is very dangerous especially if he gets a beating it can be very dangerous in terms of damaging the brain.

    There is nothing wrong in rooting for certain boxers, i certainly dont hate Horn and I thought he beat Pac and it was a great fight to watch, he had to use rough house tactics but this is the fight game. I dont pay attenetion much to what Bud does outside the ring to be fair I just watch him in the ring and I like what I see in terms of ability. I think Spence may be the fave to beat Bud, he is bigger and he works the body fantastically.

    I think the fight will be another entertaining one, Horns style doesnt really allow for anything else to be fair! I just think Bud will be a little to cute for him and will catch him on the way in just like Pac did where it looked like he might have stopped Horn (cant remember the round might have been around 8/9?). Defo looking forward to it though and will be up til the early hours in the morning to watch it.

    When fighters come down in weight, they are draining themselves and become dehydrated and weak.

    OR

    When fighters come down in weight, they are giving themselves an advantage by being bigger and stronger and bullying the other guy.

    Why can some guys do it and not be weak? Maybe they aren't that big? Is water weight that important? I know Hurdt look pretty big but how come he's not drained or looking super gaunt? The guy can make the weight fine, we just have to accept it.
